Review for Tamerlaine Sanctuary & Preserve, Montague, NJ, USA
Sanctuaries perform an essential role--not just in rescuing animals in dire need but also spreading the word about how to prevent the suffering in the first place. Tamerlaine is a true beacon in this vital mission. When visiting or donating to a sanctuary it's important to recognize that there are all sorts—from "micro-sanctuaries" run by a single person or two, using social media to over-amplify their impact, to corporate entities raising millions with professional fundraising departments, where the animals become cogs in the cashflow wheel. The Northeast is rich with both kinds, but Tamerlaine is the rare exception--a place run by genuine and lovely people working really hard, and doing truly fantastic work. Your donations there don't go to management making 6-figures, but really do go towards the animals and their care. Tamerlaine gives its animals wonderful lives, and the care of every animal--from the largest steer to the smallest bird--is based upon what's best for that animal. Don't take my word for it, though. If you can, I highly recommend you go and see for yourself. If you want a warm, personal and genuine experience connecting with these vital animal ambassadors, Tamerlaine won't disappoint.
